He exists in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. He is totally loving and completely holy.<br><br>We believe that sin brings death and separates each of us from God and His purpose for our lives.<br><br>We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, born of a virgin is both God and man. He is the only One who can reconcile us to God. He lived a sinless and exemplary life, died on the cross in our place, and rose again to demonstrate His victory over death that we may have eternal life.<br><br>We believe that in order to receive forgiveness and the \u2018new birth\u2019 we must repent of our sins, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and submit to His will for our lives.<br><br>We believe that in order to live the holy and fruitful lives that God intends for us, we need to be empowered by the Holy Spirit and live by faith in accordance with His word.<br><br>We believe that we need to be baptized with the Holy Spirit who empowers us with spiritual gifts, including speaking in tongues, which is the normal New Testament evidence of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit.<br><br>We believe that Jesus has commissioned His Church to make disciples, proclaim the Gospel and extend His Kingdom to the whole world.<br><br>We believe that God wants to heal, deliver and transform us so that we can live healthy and prosperous lives in order to help others more effectively.<br><br>We believe that our eternal destination of either Heaven or Hell is determined by His grace through our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.<br><br>We believe in the continued and present operation of the Five-Fold Ascension Ministry Gifts to the church \u2013 Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor and Teacher (Ephesians 4:11)<br><br>We believe that marriage was instituted by God in Eden and is a holy, covenantal, procreative, Christ-centered relationship between a man and a woman. As such, it cannot be redefined by human preference or government.<br><br>We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is coming back again in all His glory and power as He
